Abstract

Purpose of this paper is presentation of forms of hydrogen degradation in steel along with pointing out methods for hydrogen degradation prevention. The paper outlines influence of nitrided layer on 34CrAlNi7-10 steel to its susceptibility to hydrogen degradation. Investigation was carried out with the use of slow strain tensile rate test (SSRT). Fracture surfaces after SSRT test were examined with scanning electron microscope (SEM) to reveal a mode and mechanism of cracking.
